Docker Server

We provide Minetest server Docker images using the GitHub container registry.

Images are built on each commit and available using the following tag scheme:

  • ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master (latest build)
  • ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:<tag> (specific Git tag)
  • ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:latest (latest Git tag, which is the stable release)

See here for all available tags.

For a quick test you can easily run:

docker run ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master

To use it in a production environment, you should use volumes bound to the Docker host to persist data and modify the configuration:

docker create -v /home/minetest/data/:/var/lib/minetest/ -v /home/minetest/conf/:/etc/minetest/ ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master

You may also want to use Docker Compose:

---
version: "2"
services:
  minetest_server:
    image: ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master
    restart: always
    networks:
      - default
    volumes:
      - /home/minetest/data/:/var/lib/minetest/
      - /home/minetest/conf/:/etc/minetest/
    ports:
      - "30000:30000/udp"
      - "127.0.0.1:30000:30000/tcp"

Data will be written to /home/minetest/data on the host, and configuration will be read from /home/minetest/conf/minetest.conf.

Note: If you don't understand the previous commands please read the official Docker documentation before use.
